Users run programs in CPU In a multiprogramming system a CPU always has several jobs to run How to define a CPU job? The important concept: Prof Hui Jiang Dept of Computer Science and Engineering York University PROCESS 5 * is a running program a program in execution is a basic unit of CPU activities a process is a unit of work in a multiprogramming system Many different processes in a multiprogramming system: User processes executing user code Word processor Web browser editor etc System processes executing operating system codes CPU scheduling Memorymanagement I/O operation Multiple processes concurrently run in a CPU Program code Mov AX 0x10 Mov BX CX Push CX Mov CXDX OUT 0x11CX POP CX Code Stack PC CPU Registers Memory Dept of CS York Univ 1

6 Prepared by Prof Hui Jiang COSC1 /9/007 A process can create some new processes via a createprocess system call: Parent process / children process All process in Unix form a tree structure Resource Allocation of child process The child process get its resource from OS directly Constrain to its parent s resources Parent status The parent continues to execute concurrently with its children The parent waits until its children terminate Initialization of child process address space Child process is a duplicate of its parent process Child process has a program loaded into it How to pass parameters initialization data from parent to child? In UNIX each process is identified by its process number pid In UNIX fork is used to create a new process Creating a new process with fork: New child process is created by fork Parent process address space is copied to new process space initially identical address space Both child and parent processes continue execution from the instruction after fork Return code of fork is different: in child process return code is zero in parent process return code is nonzero it is the process number of the new child process If desirable another system call execlp can be used by one of these two processes to load a new program to replace its original memory space #include <stdioh> void mainint argc char *argv[ ] { int pid ; /* fork another process */ pid = fork ; if pid < 0 { /* error occurred */ fprintfstderr Fork Failed!\n ; exit1 ; else if pid == 0 { /* child process*/ execlp /bin/ls ls NULL ; else { /* parent process */ /* parent will wait for the child to complete */ waitnull ; printf Child Complete\n ; exit0 ; Dept of CS York Univ 6

7 Prepared by Prof Hui Jiang COSC1 /9/007 Normal termination: Finishes executing its final instruction or call exit system call Abnormal termination: make system call abort The parent process can cause one of its child processes to terminate The child uses too much resources The task assigned to the child is no longer needed If the parent exits all its children must be terminated in some systems termination: The process returns data output to its parent process In UNIX the terminated child process number is return by wait in parent process All its resources are deallocated by OS Unix system calls for process control: getid: get process ID pid of calling process fork: create a new process exec: load a new program to run execlchar *pathname char *arg0 ; execvchar *pathname char* argv[ ] ; execle execve execlp execvp wait waitid: wait child process to terminate exit abort: a process terminates Concurrent processes executing in the operating system Independent: runs alone Cooperating: it can affect or be affected by other processes Why cooperating processes? Information sharing Computation speedup Modularity Convenience Need interprocess communication IPC mechanism for cooperating processes: Sharedmemory Messagepassing Dept of CS York Univ 7

8 Prepared by Prof Hui Jiang COSC1 /9/007 IPC with message passing provides a mechanism to allow processes to communicate and to synchronize their actions without sharing the same address space IPC based on messagepassing system: es communication without sharing space Communication is done through the passing of messages At least two operations: sendmessage receivemessage Message size: fixed vs variable Logical communication link: Direct vs indirect communication Symmetric vs asymmetric communication Automatic or explicit buffering Each process must explicitly name the recipient or sender of the communication sendpmessage ReceiveQmessage A link is established between each pair of processes A link is associated with exactly two processes Asymmetric direct communication: no need for recipient to name the sender sendpmessage receive&idmessage: id return the sender identity Disadvantage of direct communication: Limited modularity due to explicit process naming The messages are sent to and received from mailbox Mailbox is a logical unit where message can be placed or removed by processes each mailbox has a unique id sendamessage: A is mailbox ID receiveamessage A link is established in two processes which share mailbox A link may be associated with more than two processes A number of different link may exist between each pair of processes OS provides some operations on mailbox Create a new mailbox Send and receive message through the mailbox Delete a mailbox Message passing may be either blocking or nonblocking Blocking is considered synchronous Nonblocking is considered asynchronous send and receive primitives may be either blocking or nonblocking Blocking send Nonblocking send Blocking receive Nonblocking receive When both the send and receive are blocking we have a rendezvous between the sender and the receiver Dept of CS York Univ 8

9 Prepared by Prof Hui Jiang COSC1 /9/007 The buffering provided by the logical link: Zero capacity: the sender must block until the recipient receives the message no buffering Bounded capacity: the buffer has finite length The sender doesn t block unless the buffer is full Unbounded capacity: the sender never blocks Signals Pipes Message queues Shared memory Sockets others Signal is a technique to notify a process that some events have occurred The process has three choices to deal with the signal: Ignore the signal Let the default action occur Provide a function that is called when the signals occurs signal function: change the action function for a signal #include <signalh> void *signalint signo void *func int ; kill function: send a signal to another process #include <sys/typesh> #include <signalh> int kill int pid int signo ; Dept of CS York Univ 9
